The track was released for BTS\u2019 anniversary celebration, also known to ARMY (that\u2019s the name BTS fans wear proudly) as Festa.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here&#8217;s the scoop: &#8220;<em>Never Let Go<\/em>&#8221; debuted at midnight EST and quickly ascended to the top spot of the iTunes tally. This debut to No. 1 displaced Eminem&#8217;s &#8220;<em>Houdini<\/em>,&#8221;<\/strong> which after a week in the first place, has descended to the second spot.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-116738\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musicmundial.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/BTS-Jungkook-vs-Eminem.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.musicmundial.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/BTS-Jungkook-vs-Eminem.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/www.musicmundial.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/BTS-Jungkook-vs-Eminem-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.musicmundial.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/BTS-Jungkook-vs-Eminem-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.musicmundial.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/BTS-Jungkook-vs-Eminem-768x512.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/>The hype for Jungkook&#8217;s new music extends beyond this one song. For instance, &#8220;<em><strong>Standing Next to You<\/strong><\/em>&#8221; has re-entered the charts at No. 37, while his collaborations\u2014 &#8220;<em><strong>3D<\/strong><\/em>&#8221; with Jack Harlow and &#8220;<em><strong>Seven<\/strong><\/em>&#8221; featuring Latto\u2014 are also getting attention again, making it to the top 200 of the United States iTunes chart.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Never Let Go&#8221; might be a standalone release for now, but this initial hype from fans suggests it could make a splash on the Billboard charts. The song could potentially enter the Digital Song Sales or might even be on the <strong>Billboard Hot 100<\/strong>, which ranks the most popular songs in the United States. While all these are early predictions, one thing&#8217;s for sure: when Jungkook speaks, the world listens!<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" hcb-fetch-image-from=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=weRxoGz-rtE\" title=\"Never Let Go\" width=\"1240\" height=\"930\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/weRxoGz-rtE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BTS&#8217; Jungkook might be in the military, but his star power isn&#8217;t taking a break!
